What rocks are formed from melted rock that has cooled and solidified?
Igneous rocks are formed from melted rock that has cooled and solidified. Examples include granite, basalt, and obsidian.
What rock forms when an old rock is melted then cools?
An igneous rock called a "magma" forms from the melting and subsequent cooling of an older rock. Examples include granite formed from the cooling of melted continental crust or basalt formed from the melting of oceanic crust.
What type of rock is formed from cooled melted rock?
Igneous rock is formed from cooled melted rock. It can be further classified as intrusive (formed below the earth's surface) or extrusive (formed on the earth's surface). Examples include granite, basalt, and obsidian.
What is the term which refers to rocks that are produced when melted rocks that are produced when melted rock from inside earth cools and hardens on or under earth's surface?
Igneous rocks are formed when melted rock (magma or lava) from inside the Earth cools and hardens on or under the Earth's surface. This process involves the solidification of molten material, leading to the formation of rocks like granite, basalt, and obsidian.
What happens to granite if it is melted?
"lava"

Is a shale rock a melted material inside the earth?
No, shale rock is not a melted material inside the earth. It is a type of sedimentary rock formed from compacted mud and clay particles. Melted materials inside the earth form igneous rocks through volcanic or intrusive processes.

Rocks formed from melted material inside the earth?
Intrusive igneous rocks.

How does sandstone turn into granite?
The sandstone would have to be melted first by descending into the lower crust at a subduction zone. Once melted it would have to rise through the crust cooling slowly to allow the formation of typical large crystal granite texture and allow steam to outgas from the melt before solidification.
Name one mafic igneous rock formed when melted rock material cooled near the surface of the earth?
Basalt is a mafic igneous rock formed when melted rock material cools near the surface of the Earth. It is characterized by its dark color and fine-grained texture.
A mountain formed by melted rock escaping from the earth's crust?
is called a volcanic mountain
What kind of rock is formed when melted minerals cool and harden?
Igneous rock is formed when melted minerals cool and harden. This process can happen either beneath the Earth's surface (intrusive igneous rock) or on the surface (extrusive igneous rock). Examples of igneous rocks include granite, basalt, and obsidian.
Is glass made out of granite?
No, glass is made from melted silicon dioxide.
